JAMES’ HALL. Le ture on Abra col ». him Li: The fame of the subje , the reputation and the comforts of the lecture room combined to draw to St. James Hall last evening a large and highly intelli- yentaudience. In the course of au ordin~ ary lecture it ss ditficult to bring ovt all that is of interest int .e life of a man like Abraham Li and this diffisulty was coin, | experienced by Mr. du-tice Fitzgerald. For coursed eutertainingly and _ instructively concerning the life and life work of Anra- ham Lincoln, and even then there was much that remained untold or was dispos- ~d of by mere passing reference’. The lecturer spoke briefly of Lincoln's varly life in Kentucky and Indiana, refer- ring to the struggle he had to acquire an education. He pictured Lincoln when only nine years of age sitting in his cabin n Kentucky writing his first note address. ed to an itinerant preacher asking him to say @ prayer over his mother’s grave; and also pictured him some months later with his father and sister at the grave drinking in the words of the preacher. When Lincolo was twenty-one years of age he moved to Illinois, and a year later he decided to leave farm work and e-rn his own livelihood. He worked at any- thingthat turned up, for the principal training he had was in rail splitting. All this time, however, Liacoln was not idle. He wasa great student, and was | exceptionally well informed regarding the constitutional and general history of hi« |country. He was also very witiy, and wae a favorite with all. He was elected to Congress from putes. If the energies and abilities of our i pe pe need exercise et our polit ical | ieacers take up the question of the de i velopment of the North-West. How shall | our millions of acres be brought into the market? How can our thousands of in habitants be made millions? How can | we put our militia force into oper con- | dition ?

In the meantime he had been studying law, and at twenty eight was admitted to the bar. The following year he was again elected to the State Legislature. From that time began the life of the man. While Lincoln was in the State Legis- ature he signed a resolution which de- clared that “slavery was a curse in any country.” . This was a step in advance of the legislation of his own state, and of his own country. Subsequently he went to New Orleans. and there saw the slave narket for himself. He saw the slaves sold like so many cattle; the wife separat- ed from her husband, the children from their mother, and the sister from her bro- ther. This sight made a deep impression upon Lincolo’s mind, and he said, “If ever I get a chance to hit this institution, [il hit it hard, by the Erernal God,’ The time between the th.rtieh thiety-seventh year of Lincoln’s life sa tly spent in the practice of his profes— sion, in which he attained considerable eminence. When thirty-six years of age he married Mary Todd. When thirty-seven he was again elected to Congress. Here he had to meet and battle with such intellectnal giants as Clay, Wels e-, Sumner, Seward and Chase, but he never fi:nched. The iecturer pointed out that previous to 1845, the slave power was dominant throughout the United States. This power Cominated trade and every depart- ment of state. Then came the Kansas- Nebraska Act, and other Acts of the legis- ature dealing with the question of slavery, the provisions of which were pointed out. Atthe time of Lincoln’s election as President of the United States he had not only attained a mastery of his profession, but was also # speaker of ability. He was and wast well prepared to face the slavery ques- tion—and did face it. Two days before Lincoln took his seat as President, congress passed an act mak- ng slavery pérpetual throughout the eugth and breadth of the country. The position was a trying one for Lincoln, bat he proved Sequaltc it. His effort was iirected not so much to free the sk yes as against the dominant slave power; his ob- Ject was to place the slave powerin such 8 position as to free the slaves. In Septer- ber, 1462, he iseued a proclamation de- reeing that on and after the first day of January, 1863, the ne: gro should be free n every state that rebelled against the- north. The war for the Union was alao refer- red to, vod brief reference made to the prin- pal battles and their results. The lec turer also quoted from several of Lin- :oln’s speeches, briefly referred to his lam- uted death at the hands of the assassin, ow paid a tribute to the unostentatious piety ot the martpred President.
